Subject: [PATCH] btrfs: Fix incorrect check causing NULL pointer derefernce
Date:   Sun, 15 Dec 2019 11:32:26 -0600
Message-Id: <20191215173226.29149-1-pakki001@umn.edu>
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org
Precedence: bulk

In btrfsic_process_superblock, argument state is dereferenced for
the variable fs_info and then checked for NULL. The patch fixes
this issue by returning an error if state is NULL and then assigns
fs_info.
